52:30Can't do it without you. All right, Courtney, what's up next? Next question comes in from Taylor Sonderhaus in Cincinnati, Ohio. He says, are we playing with VisVector, I guess, after the show in After Hours? All right, we're tossing the ball to Guy. Yeah, I'm really proud of this one. This is a culmination of a ton of work, and I'm super thankful for all that's been done on this one
52:54because it's fantastic. One of the things to think about is in office hours, we can allow people from around the world to play with tools that are inside of trucks, broadcast trucks. It doesn't cost Rion in Trinidad anything to double-click nice DCV and pop into Vector. So I'm in Vector right now. This is the show running live in Vector, and I just downloaded a little DCV file.
53:21But it's amazing that we could be around the world learning these tools. And so Rion's really interested in 3Play. So one of the other features of high-end trucks is the ability to roll replay. And we will have that capability. Taylor's going to be in After Hours showing off this technology. This is amazing. It's running in the cloud. So this is what used to be a box, used to be a TriCaster box, and you would plug your SDI in.
53:46We're running Zoom, so this is the show that we all jump into the stage. And what you're seeing here is basically all those inputs. So this is like Zoom ISO, but it's native. Vmix could do the same thing, but there's so much more power under the hood, especially things like Replay. And these are the tools that serious professionals use. So I'm excited for the community to get their hands on these tools and super thankful again for Viz for sponsoring.
54:14Or is that the right word? I guess it's a sponsorship because they're allowing us to use their tools and they're not charging us anything. They're getting exposure by letting people like Rayon and whoever wants to jump into this meeting right after this one and play. So I'd encourage everybody to at least get the intro as to how this is running and how it operates at the quality that it can output.
54:37And Guy, for the uninitiated, you mentioned at the beginning there about downloading a DCV file. What is that? So nice DCV is like a splash top or a parsec. So it's Amazon's version. So this particular VizVector is VizVector in the cloud. So they have a way of allowing... Let me see if I could show that dashboard. Um, where, uh, is that something you have to pay for?
55:05I'm assuming this is a service or something you have to pay. It's something that they built. Okay. Let me make sure there's nothing. Okay. So this is what the backend looks like. And so when you hit download, I don't actually want to, well, okay, I'll hit it. When I hit download, it should show me. Yeah. So it just downloaded the DCV file.
55:23And then when I double click that, which I don't want to do because, uh, I don't want interrupt if they're if they're doing the uh show i i know he's he's shadow cutting the show right now but basically it gives you a file and this is the file that i was saying rayon would just open up and all of a sudden he's in so that's all the credentials it's everything like uh well basically
55:41we have to whitelist your ip because it's one of these danger things you know where somebody could attack that thing but basically once we whitelist an operator's ip address they get that nice dcv file, they can pop it open, and now they're connected. They're in. They're controlling. It's just Windows, essentially. You know, it's a fancy Windows instance, just like the Azure instance that I was showing
56:03you with the little thing that I built. It's just somebody else's computer. That's all the cloud is. And so we're running their broadcast-grade software on a bulletproof machine. So it's exciting stuff. I mean, definitely come into After Hours and play. Awesome. All right, let's go to the next one. coming in from ceilings grove pennsylvania john fultz asked when guy shot the cooking show mad
56:26in the kitchen with benji uh they are they use the dji osmos i have a few of those and a max studio how far away should i get that can i get the osmos from the computer and what do i need to make that work uh i would like to use the ptz in ecang all right ronnie what do you think Yeah, so I've done something similar. We tested using Insta360 both at 4k and 108060 for the newest one.
